Celebrating British Wit on the Wall: Introducing the Proper British Books Collection
We’re delighted to unveil our latest wall-art series: the Proper British Books – Funny Vintage Parody Framed Prints collection.
Think vintage book covers, dry British humour and clever parody — now ready to hang straight on your wall.
Why this collection?
There’s something unmistakably charming about good British understatement. With a nod to mid-century design and a wink of modern wit, this collection draws together heritage style and contemporary cheek. As the product page describes it:
“Discover the charm, wit and understatement of British humour … a hilarious series of vintage-style framed prints celebrating everything quintessentially British.”
Whether it’s a phrase that makes you smile, a design that brings you back to classic paperback covers, or a simple tasteful piece of wall art that sparks conversation — this collection is for you.
What makes these prints special
- Each print is ready-to-hang: you’ll get the hanging kit and be able to display it without hassle.
- The frames are crafted from durable pine wood and come in a range of finishes (black, white, natural or dark brown) so you can match your décor.
- Premium printing on FSC-certified paper, with matte finish and shatter-proof plexiglass protection. In short: high-quality materials all round.
- And of course: that British humour, referencing phrases like “chuffed to bits”, “a bit of a pickle”, “stiff upper lip” (just to name a few) — all in perfect tongue-in-cheek form.
Where these prints could live
- Home office or study – give your wall a sense of understated wit while staying smart and clean.
- Reading nook or library wall – these vintage-style pieces sit well alongside bookshelves and cosy reading corners.
